GLOSSARY ENTRY (DERIVED FROM QUESTION BELOW)
German term or phrase:Tgb.-Nr. (Tagebuch-Nummer)
English translation:Journal Entry No.

Law/Patents - Law (general) / Legal Abbreviation
German term or phrase: Tgb.-Nr.
Seems to be part of a law or ordinance in accordance with which an examination was carried out - "IV D 1 Tgb. Nr 1838 (Amtsblatt S. 44)"

Now, from a German list of abbreviations, I found "Tagebuch-Nummer" for "Tgb. Nr.". Would this be correct? And if so, what would it be in English? Journal number? Maybe, gazette number? Thanks for helping me clear this one up.

Journal Entry Number
Explanation:
You were correct with Tagebuchnummer.

Journal Entry Number would be the proper term in a legal/business context. The corresponding verb is 'to journalise(B.E.)/to journalize (U.S.)' for 'in ein Tagebuch eintragen'

I picked Allemande's answer, because it gave me a more precise idea of how to translate "Tagebuchnummer". And "journal" certainly makes much better sense than "diary" here. Thanks to Fred for the initial confirmation, however.
